Pacifica, California –It has been two long years since Pacifica has celebrated the Pacific Coast Fog Fest.
The 2022 Fog Fest will bring tons of fun for the two-day event, reuniting family and friends for this
annual tradition.
The Pacific Coast Fog Fest has a new President, James Crowe. Nominated by the Board of Directors in
November 2021, James brings 30 years of media and marketing experience to the event. When asked
about his new role he replied, “I am excited and extremely humbled to be working with such a talented
group of individuals dedicated to giving so much back to the community.” Past President Larry Passmore
stated, “After an extensive search during the pandemic, I know we had found the right person to take over
as President. The whole organization is excited to have him lead Fog Fest into the future.”
The Pacific Coast Fog Fest attracts thousands of visitors and celebrates the uniqueness of the region and
the spirit of all Pacificans. The Pacific Coast Fog Fest raises funds for local non-profit and other
community organizations. The organization also contributes to the “Gift for Pacifica Fund.” Through the
years, 50+ local organizations have benefited by volunteering in the festival, resulting in over $1,000,000
given back to the community since Fog Fest’s inception 35 years ago.
The Pacific Coast Fog Fest began in 1986 to promote The City of Pacifica and to celebrate the marvelous
coast. The last full weekend of September was chosen because historically the weather is unbeatable. The
Fog Fest kicks off Saturday morning at 10:00 A.M. with the Discover Pacifica Parade and marching band
competition. Festival attendees stay and enjoy the arts and crafts booths, food and beverage, music
entertainment, Family Fun Fest, and a variety of other activities.
The Pacific Coast Fog Fest Organizing Board includes Executive Committee members James Crowe
(President), Scott Cirimeli (Sponsorships), Kathlene Crowe (Secretary). Other committee members
include John Beckmeyer (Logistics), Josh Armstrong (Entertainment Chair), Robine Runneals (Parade
Chair), Archie Judan (Parade Co-Chair) all supported by Fog Fest Coordinator, Kathy Johnson.
Pacifica is the “Passage to The Coast” and “Everything Starts Here!” Come celebrate 35 years of
traditional family fun at the Pacific Coast Fog Fest.
